We got married at The Estate and there are not enough wonderful things I can say about the staff at East Wind. Jennifer was our salesperson and she was a dream to work with! She was so responsive to all of our questions and is just one of the nicest, most bubbly people! She took the time to congratulate us, and make sure our night went well. Our maitre d was Tony. Him and his staff were on top of everything. Between making dropping off all of our decor so easy, setting it all up BEAUTIFULLY, ensuring us and our guests had everything we needed, and just being a warm presence, he helped make our day run so smoothly. Marylou was our bridal attendant. She is an ABSOLUTE sweetheart. She was so attentive! Our guests raved about the food and the service all night. We are so happy that we chose East Wind!

Everyone at East Wind was amazing and very easy to work with. We planned our wedding in just three months, and East Wind helped take off some of the stress. The food was amazing, the drinks were strong and all of my DIY stuff was out exactly where I asked.

Having a wedding at the East Wind Long Island was an amazing experience. The venue and weather were all great! I'm glad that I had my wedding at the East Wind Long Island.

This is seriously a beautiful venue. I fell in love with the rustic feel and look. I was dead set on using a venue that only did 1 wedding at a time, and I know that East Wind can do multiple at a time, but the fact that all the areas are completely separate properties, have their own kitchens, bars, bridal areas and staff, you would never know that other weddings may be there. On our day, we were the only wedding on the entire property, so we were even able to use some of the other venues for photos which was great. Our Sales manager, Nicole, was so amazing. She was so patient with me, as I had many questions along the way and was always very quick at responding. On the day of, we had Joe as our Maître D and Barbara as my bridal attendant. Both were so great. I had not one worry on the day of. They were a well-oiled machine. My cup was never empty and they always seemed to know what was needed. I could not recommend East Wind more.

The Vineyard at East Wind- everything from the service , to the decoration, to the accommodations was perfect . Joe was our Maitre d…he was awesome ! He took care of everything we asked, he truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect ! Barbara was my bridal attendant and she was by my side the entire night. She kept adjusting my dress during pictures, and throughout the evening both her and Joe made sure we were always taken care of . I literally did not have to ask them a thing. It’s like they could read our minds ! Our glasses were always full and they were always around . Truly could not have gone through the night without them…from the food, to the exceptional service , that waitstaff and cooks are amazing . Everyone raved about the food and service !

We were originally scheduled to have our wedding at Miller Place Inn. 80 Days before our wedding we received the notice that MPI closed. To say we were in crisis mode is an understatement. That being said, East Wind was nothing but a miracle. We worked with Jennifer and Rob and the entire staff at East Wind was so accommodating, helpful and overall a happy, energetic bunch. They always made you feel like family when you were there. The property is breathtaking! We we had our first look at the front round about, ceremony in the outdoor chapel, and cocktail/reception in the Veranda Room. Tony (Maitre 'D), Tara (Bridal Attend), and Joey (Captain) went above and beyond the entire day to make everything perfect.

The venue itself is beautiful and the grounds at East Wind are STUNNING. We wanted a venue that had a combination of a rustic and modern look, and this venue has it all. Although there are other weddings that can be going on at the hotel the same day, the Estate is a separate building and I like how you’re the only wedding there. The hotel being on site is another bonus as it’s super convenient for your out of town guests to stay at.  Our sales rep that we were assigned to was Nicole. She was absolutely amazing! Nicole always answered my million phone calls and emails right away. I’m so happy that we had her for the months leading into our big day. Two other people that we need to give a HUGE shoutout to are our Maitre’d Tony and Bridal Attendant Mary Lou. They both went above and beyond for us the entire day. Anything we needed or wanted, they delivered and made us feel so at ease. Could not recommend this venue more!!

Special Thanks to Penny, TK, and Reid at East Wind for all their assistance on our wedding planning, day of, and our hiccups, we greatly appreciate you!

We couldn’t have been happier choosing East Wind for our wedding venue. The whole process was seamless, from planning through the wedding day itself. Jennifer made our lives easy leading up to the wedding and their staff was incredible on the day of our wedding. Incredible service, delicious food, and great attitudes from the whole staff allowed us to truly enjoy our special day. If you are looking for a place to get married, East Wind is the place!

I'm so happy we chose The Estate at East Wind for our wedding venue! Everything was perfect and we could not have asked for a better day! We got so many compliments on the food, we loved the cocktail hour and reception spaces, and having the hotel right next door made the experience very convenient for our guests. Everyone we worked with was extremely accommodating and attentive including our sales rep, Jennifer; our Maitre D, Tony; and our bridal attendant, Mary Lou. They truly made the experience special and helped the day run smoothly. I would highly recommend East Wind for your special day!

We had our wedding at East Wind and it was fantastic! Our guests couldn’t get over the amount of food and quality! They offered seconds at dinner!
